Women pant after him.
When he kisses her—she hears the angels sing.
But single mom Kate Gilletti has her hands full as it is. Falling for the hunky single dad every woman in town is hot for—is not on her Christmas list.

Authors note: This is a sweet, funny and sexy holiday read! No Cheating, HEA with plenty of fire to melt those Kindles.





Review
Rating: ☆☆☆☆

Both Kate and Gianni are raising their children pretty much single handed as both have exes that leave a lot to be desired as parents and human beings.

Kate is trying to hold it all together as well as a full time job with a boss who has it in for her.  Gianni is the school yard eye candy but this gives the impression that he is a ladies man but this couldn't be further from the truth.  He is certainly hot and charming but his priority is his son.  Kate and Gianni are thrown together when Kate's son acts out on Gianni's son.

Kate spends a long time resisting Gianni's charm trying to get her life together.  Both have to deal with manipulative exes.  I could completely emphasise with Kate as she tries to juggle it all and remain sane.

These were great characters who were fun and quirky.  I loved their strength and their vulnerability.  I loved the Christmas feel to this story that made it all the more magical.

Excerpt

“It's late...”
I grab her hand, “I know...but I don't want the night to be over…yet.”
“The kids are tired...”
I turn her arm over and draw circles on the middle of her palm with my index finger.
“Jesus, man candy, we just met yesterday. What are you doing to me?”
I answer with eyes full of promises. Dirty, hot promises you fulfill in the dark.
She sucks in her breath; her knees shake as she tries to take her hand back.
But I won’t let go.
Instead, I drop my face pressing my lips to her palm before looking back up. In that moment, I make a silent promise to her—a vow that this is going to happen someday. 
"I'm not dating, Gianni."
"Good. There's no one in my way."
"But there is..." She nods over to Luca whose teaching Tommy how to play the video game.
"Nah, I know you’re a package deal. So are we." I nod over to Tommy.
"You wanna do a playdate tomorrow at my house?"
"Gianni...."
"God, I want you."
"Slow down."
"I can't. It’s been so long, you get it."
"I don't do casual sex."
"Oh sweetheart, it's going to be anything but casual. I can promise you that."



Author Bio


Claire Woods lives in upstate New York with her dog Ginger and a room full of books. She's horribly shy, never misses a UFC Fight, and has a horrible addiction to sushi and banana peppers (maybe even eating them together). 

Books have been her means of escape. It's been a long-standing dream of Claire's to travel to Australia where she hopes to find a hot rugby player to sweep her off her feet and romance her on Bondi Beach while petting koala's and drinking champagne at midnight.  (this might be her next book) 

Until then, she'll have to write her perfect man on paper while waiting for him to magically appear. 

You never know, stranger things have happened.
